John's Description;
BARB WIRE
(Benz) tet 36" M. Dor. [(Tooth and Nail x Startling Creation) X Horns]
This 8.5 inch twisting red and yellow bi-color UFO is the largest and narrowest of our shark's teeth varieties so far. I crossed Jamie Gossard's narrowest edge, STARTLING CREATION to my own TOOTH AND NAIL in hopes of getting a really big narrow flower with teeth. The best of these was riddled with teeth, but only a little over 5" in size; so I crossed HORNS onto it and then came the homeruns. BARB WIRE is much larger than any of the F-1 kids from Tet. SPINDAZZLE, and is more narrow than any edged variety I've seen. The first year it bloomed I measured several blooms very near 4:1, but in a well-grown clump, she is a bit wider. Blooming on a strong tall 36" scape which boasts 3 laterals, a terminal cluster and over 30 buds, BARB WIRE has been much admired by garden visitors, even those who prefer the rounder forms. Plants are large, with wide arching blue-green foliage and BARB WIRE makes one of the most spectacular clumps in the garden. Fertile both ways; pollen is easier. We will bloom lots of kids from BARB WIRE over the next 2 years as both pod and pollen parent. $300.00
